EY supports International Women's Day

Accelerating achievement of gender parity - within EY and in business at large - is not just a fairness argument but an economic
imperative. It's key to building a better world. Now is the time to take action and put gender on the global agenda. EY is
determined to do their part to accelerate women's progress in the workplace. They've worked hard for many years to create
effective internal and external programs focused on women’s advancement and leadership around the world - and they know there's
more to do.

Now, they've brought all their efforts together to create one unifying accelerator. Through Women. Fast forward they're using
their collective knowledge, experiences and convening power to push themselves further and to do their part to accelerate global
gender parity. The experiences and knowledge EY has gained in their own journey combined with their research, highlight opportunities for
accelerating women in the workforce.

Illuminating the path to leadership

EY knows how important it is for all of their people to have colleagues and leaders who advocate for them as they pursue opportunities
in EY. They're emphasizing the importance of "equitable sponsorship" for both women and men, maximizing access to training, feedback,
coaching, stretch opportunities and work experiences that women, and men, need to help them advance their career success.

Creating a culture that enables flexibility for all

Flexibility is critically important to EY's people, and making everyday flexibility a way of life helps them attract, retain and
develop the best and brightest men and women.

Building a supportive and inclusive environment, where all differences are valued and leveraged

At the foundation of their efforts to support women is the belief that all differences matter. EY's diversity and inclusiveness road map
challenges them, as individuals and as an organization, to create opportunities to build better teams and lead inclusively.

International Women's Day (March 8) is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The
day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity. International Women's Day (IWD) has occurred for well over a century, with the
first​ ​March 8​ ​IWD gathering supported by over a million people in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland. Prior to this the​ Socialist Party
of America, United Kingdom's Suffragists and Suffragettes, and further groups campaigned for women equality. Today, IWD belongs to all groups
collectively everywhere. IWD is not country, group or organisation specific.​ Make IWD your day! - everyday!
